The Past



The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.

PhotoHunt - Flags


I've had to delve into my photo collection and go back to 2004 to find these flags.

Seen flying ( if flying is the best word - they seem rather limp ) in the old capital of Montenegro - Cetinje.



The Bulgarian flag above - here at their consulate together with the Bulgarian coat of arms.



And here we have the national flag of Montenegro which was not adopted by the country until July 13th 2004.

Do you spend your winters in Spain?

The flags were all over the festival. They are festives flags, I remember in Singapore, when they have a dragon dance or lion dance, the dancers came in a big truck bearing flags like this.

Thanks for visiting.

Ever come to New Zealand?

Cheers,

Ann :)

Yep - mainly winter time in Spain but sometimes when the weather is bad in the UK we head out to Spain in the summer as well.

No, never been to NZ - it looks a great place to visit ..
